General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Quite sure what the relevance of that comment is, but anyway, they have not been released they have simply been bailed which is different. They are still 100% absolutely fucked, they will be lucky if they come out of this without jail time and just with heavy fines.

But they're not considered flea risks (where are they going to go, it's not like they're hardened criminals with foreign assets) so there's no point keeping them in custody.

Ah, it was a little joke about how if they were planning to knock down a cherished location, the people responsible for The Crooked House would be ideal candidates.
